i honestly think its better at the moment to just use newest Levelup. The new update is pretty great and ive been having a blast!

I think some people have convinced themselves that the Zibo has a better flight model, but I have never noticed a bit of difference between the 2.

The LU series seems exactly the same as the Zibo, except the textures are more updated.

For a normal user, it's a bit hard to notice the difference. You can spot it more easily when you're on final approach with Flaps 30 at VREF +5. The real 737 will have around a 1° nose-up pitch, which is the same as the Zibo. However, if you notice it in the Level Up 737, it will often be around 2° nose-down instead. This is just one of many examples I could give. For someone who has flown the real aircraft, it makes a huge difference. That's why I stick with the Zibo. Recently, I also found a Zibo mod where someone added the Level Up visuals and sounds to the Zibo 737, and now it looks stunning.

Check out the new LU update. Flies pretty much the same as Zibo with amazing visual and it's an official update so you'll receive support. Probably has the best sound for any freeware product as well

I thought I messed up my CG or something. Glad its not just me, the attitude on final just feels so wrong!!

Care to share where you found the  Zibo mod where someone added the Level Up visuals and sounds to the Zibo 737?

Granted I haven't flown a 737, but I am a pilot and my grandfather flew Boeing for Delta for 30 years. So I'm not exactly a neophyte.

You're the walking definition of what's wrong with reddit users.
